Is Levitra good for a guy who has diabetes and had a heart surgery?

Asked by Kindra Kilbride 2 years ago.

If your Doctor says so, otherwise NO - read some of the warnings below Do not take vardenafil if you are also using a nitrate drug for chest pain or heart problems. This includes nitroglycerin (Nitrostat, Nitrolingual, Nitro-Dur, Nitro-Bid, and others), isosorbide dinitrate (Dilatrate-SR, Isordil, Sorbitrate), and isosorbide mononitrate (Imdur, ISMO, Monoket). Nitrates are also found in some recreational drugs such as amyl nitrate or nitrite ("poppers"). Taking vardenafil with a nitrate medicine can cause a serious decrease in blood pressure, leading to fainting, stroke, or heart attack. A small number of patients have had a sudden loss of eyesight after taking vardenafil. This type of vision loss is caused by decreased blood flow to the optic nerve of the eye. It is not clear whether vardenafil is the actual cause of such vision loss. Sudden vision loss with vardenafil use has occurred most often in people with heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or certain pre-existing eye problems, and in those who smoke or are over 50 years old. Before taking vardenafil, tell your doctor if you have: -heart disease or heart rhythm problems; -a recent history (in the past 6 months) of a heart attack, -angina (chest pain), or congestive heart failure; -a history of stroke or blood clots; -a personal or family history of "Long QT syndrome"; -high or low blood pressure; -liver disease; -kidney disease (or if you are on dialysis); -a blood cell disorder such as sickle cell anemia, multiple myeloma, or leukemia; -a bleeding disorder such as hemophilia; -a stomach ulcer; retinitis pigmentosa (an inherited condition of the eye); -a physical deformity of the penis (such as Peyronie's disease); or -if you have been told you should not have sexual intercourse for health reasons. If you have any of these conditions, you may not be able to use vardenafil or you may need a dosage adjustment or special tests during treatment. Answered by Wendie Pasch 2 years ago.

A man with diabetes and a history of heart disease has a lot of risk factors and should be consulting his doctor. I wouldn't recommend looking for advice from anonymous people online who can't be held accountable if something were to go wrong. Answered by Sean Kindt 2 years ago.

Probably not. I don't think Levitra is good for anybody, really... because it's just another drug. But you should really ask your doctor to be sure. Answered by Dale Brawdy 2 years ago.

INFORM YOUR DOCTOR OR PHARMACIST of all prescription and over-the-counter medicine that you are taking. DO NOT TAKE KAMAGRA if you are also taking or using nitroglycerin or other nitrates in any form, INCLUDING RECREATIONAL USE OF 'POPPERS'. ADDITIONAL MONITORING OF YOUR DOSE OR CONDITION may be needed if you are taking cimetidine, erythromycin, ketoconazole, itraconazole, mibefradil, or an HIV protease inhibitor. Inform your doctor of any other medical conditions or allergies. DO NOT USE KAMAGRA if you have a history of heart conditions, high or low blood pressure, stroke, or retinitis pigmentosa. Contact your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions or concerns about taking Kamagra, or Viagra, follow the directions for using Kamagra (Sildenafil Citrate), or Viagra, provided by your doctor. TAKE Kamagra about 1 hour before sexual activity, although it may be taken from 30 minutes to 4 hours before sexual activity. DO NOT EXCEED THE RECOMMENDED DOSE without checking with your doctor. DO NOT TAKE KAMAGRA MORE THAN once a day. DO NOT TAKE KAMAGRA IF YOU TAKE OR USE NITROGLYCERIN, including nitroglycerin tablets, patches, or ointment, OR OTHER NITRATES, such as 'POPPERS', isosorbide. If you are not sure whether a certain medicine is a nitrate, contact your doctor or pharmacist. SIDE EFFECTS that may occur while taking Kamagra include headache, flushing, upset stomach, stuffy nose, diarrhea, blurred vision, changes in blue or green vision, or increased light sensitivity. If they continue or are bothersome, check with your doctor. CHECK WITH YOUR DOCTOR AS SOON AS POSSIBLE if you experience prolonged abnormal, painful erections. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor, nurse, or pharmacist. DO NOT SHARE KAMAGRA with others. DO NOT USE KAMAGRA for other health conditions. KEEP KAMAGRA out of the reach of children. IF USING KAMAGRA FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME, obtain refills before your supply runs out. According to the FDA, women and children should not take Kamagra (Isn’t that obvious?), along with men who are already prescribed medications that contain nitrates. Taking Kamagra with certain medications such as erythromycin, ketoconazole, itraconazole and saquinavir can raise the blood levels of Kamagra. Following is a list of drugs, legal and otherwise, that contain nitrates. Never use Kamagra with these drugs: Nitroglycerin Deponit Minitran Nitrek Nitro-Bid Nitrocine Nitro-Derm Nitro Disc Nitro-Dur Nitrogard Nitroglycerin Nitroglycerin T/R Nitroglyn Nitrol Ointment Nitrolan Nitrolingual Spray Nitrong Nitropar Nitropress Nitroprex Nitro S.A. Nitrospan Nitrostat Nitro-Trans System Nitro Transdermal Nitro-Time Transderm-Nitro Tridil Isosorbide Mononitrate Imdur ISMO Isosorbide Mononitrate Monoket Isosorbide Nitrate Dilatrate-SR Iso-bid Isordil Isordil Tembids Isosorbide Dinitrate Isosorbide Dinitrate LA Sorbitrate Sorbitrate SA Pentaerythritol Tetranitrate Peritrate Peritrate SA Erythrityl Tetranitrate Cardilate Isosorbide Dinitrate/Phenobarbital Isordil w/PB Illicit Substances Containing Organic Nitrates e.g., amyl nitrate or nitrite (It is known that amyl nitrate or nitrite is sometimes abused. In abused situations, amyl nitrate or nitrite may be known by various names, including poppers.)e.g., butyl nitrate “A word of caution must be given about the use of sildenafil. Because potentially fatal hypotensive side effects can occur when this agent is used concurrently with nitrates, it should not be prescribed to patients who are taking nitrate medications or who may take nitroglycerin after exertional angina.” www.aafp.org Special Warnings: Kamagra was not studied in patients who have a history of the following conditions: Heart attack, stroke, or life-threatening irregular heart rhythm within the last 6 months Very low and very high blood pressure Heart failure or unstable chest pain Certain eye disorders Because Kamagra lowers blood pressure, your doctor will evaluate your overall medical condition to determine if Kamagra, in combination with sexual activity, could adversely affect you. Kamagra can cause a rare but serious condition of prolonged erection (priapism). It is important to contact your health care provider immediately if your erection lasts longer than 4 hours. Men for whom sexual activity is inadvisable may not be good candidates for Kamagra. Tell your doctor if you are taking protease inhibitors for the treatment of HIV. “From the marketing of sildenafil citrate (Viagra or Kamagra) in late March through July 1998, during which more than 3.6 million outpatient prescriptions were dispensed, the FDA received reports of 123 patients who died after having been prescribed this drug. Twelve deaths concerned foreign patients and 30 concerned patients with unverifiable information (from hearsay, rumor, the media, or unidentifiable reporters). In addition, reporters stated that they did not know if the drug had been used for 12, leaving 69 U.S. patients who died after having taken Sildenafil Citrate. Of these, cause of death was unmentioned or unknown for 21, two patients had strokes, and 46 had cardiovascular events (21 with definite or suspected myocardial infarction, 17 with cardiac arrest, 4 with cardiac symptoms, 3 with coronary artery disease, and one with severe hypotension leading to cardiac arrest).” “Single oral doses of sildenafil (100 mg) administered to healthy volunteers produced decreases in supine blood pressure (mean maximum decrease in systolic/diastolic blood pressure of 8.4/5.5 mmHg). The decrease in blood pressure was most notable approximately 1-2 hours after dosing, and was not different than placebo at 8 hours” “Sildenafil Citrate was administered to over 3700 patients (aged 19-87 years) during clinical trials worldwide. Over 550 patients were treated for longer than one year. In placebo-controlled clinical studies, the discontinuation rate due to adverse events for Sildenafil Citrate (2.5%) was not significantly different from placebo (2.3%). The adverse events were generally transient and mild to moderate in nature. In trials of all designs, adverse events reported by patients receiving Sildenafil Citrate were generally similar. In fixed-dose studies, the incidence of some adverse events increased with dose. The nature of the adverse events in flexible-dose studies, which more closely reflect the recommended dosage regimen, was similar to that for fixed-dose studies.” Answered by Nidia Wilbur 2 years ago.

Does anyone know what the brand name is for the generic heart medication Isosor.Dinitra 20 20mg?

My neighbor has this new heart med we are trying to find info about. The generic name/desription on the bottle is Isosor.dinitra 20 20mg. It is a smal green pill with a line divided down the middle. On one side there is the # 772 and on the other side is w w (or maybe m m ?) Any knowledge or helpful websites? Thanks
Asked by Jerrell Elmore 2 years ago.

Same with me, I spent about 20 minutes doing different searches on several different websites. Below is the information that I found. Maybe you should ask the pharmacist. Since it is used under the tongue etc. for chest pains, maybe the brand name is just Nitroglycerin. But I am unsure. Ask the doctor or pharmacist. See below for information I found for it though: Nitrates for coronary artery disease Examples: Isosorbide dinitrate Dilatrate-SR Isordil Sorbitrate isosorbide mononitrate Imdur ISMO nitroglycerin Nitro-Dur Nitrolingual Nitrostat Transderm-Nitro Nitrates may be given in a pill or spray form that is placed under the tongue (sublingual). Skin patches or paste are also available. Nitrates may be injected into a vein in emergency situations, such as during a heart attack. Answered by Mickey Katten 2 years ago.

Sorry no luck. Spent about 20 minutes searching the web and nothing. The best thing I can recommend is to take it back to the pharmacy and they'll be able to tell you. Answered by Lincoln Zaltz 2 years ago.
